Seems like an inevitability at this point. I thought the team played better when he was in a reserve role last season. While it's highly unusual for a 30 million per year player to be coming off the bench, it may necessary

Theis and McConnell for Robinson and pick could also be a possibility. It's basically exchanging contracts but the Pacers get a draft pick out of it. Theis gives us a big rugged body who can space a bit to start next to Bam and McConnell gives us some PG depth. Both players on manageable 3 year deals. McConell gives us insurance in case Vincent gets too pricey next off season.

The team played better cause it was a much better constructed team. If Spo decides to bench Herro it will look like the front office made a colossal mistake paying him 30 mil per year. It's not going to happen

Herro may be one exception though. If we continue losing like this, then it’s either trade to improve or tinker with the lineup. Maybe our bench could use the scoring punch. I do understand what your saying though it would be a bad look to have a newly maxed out player relegated to the bench this early after signing

Trade for gobert. No one will score on us, no one will put rebound us. Problems solved

Not sure how valid the twitter rumor is but the supposedly interest in Jarred Vanderbilt is a good one. He can do a lot of things Spo likes to do.

Until we get to the playoffs and teams treat him like they did Pj on offense

Read on Twitter

You know it’s obvious when a dumb ass like Paul Pierce can see it

Lol, we can't handle Herro in a starting lineup but talking Mitchell and Durant.

The jokes write themselves

That means we can only coach role players

Miami can't be singling out players for the rosters lack & insufficiency. We'd be going backwards benching our 2nd leading scorer, as well as hinder his development, if that is indeed our best interest for Herro. Considering also, after no acquisition, the plan was internal improvements.

Dipo was supposed to be the punch off the bench which wld have given us both some balance & defensive punch. But after a vry active & seemingly promising offseason he is again unhealthy.

Dipo has played in 12 regular season games since being traded here, my patience is wearing thin

I like Vanderbilt and would be happy to trade for him. Mentioned him earlier in this thread.

I'm sure it can go without saying, but I'm going to say it anyway. Tyler Herro is not Kevin Durant and never will be. Durant would be no problem at all because he would immediately and rightfully become our #1 option on offense. Herro is not that. He's just the guy who takes the most shots.

People bitching about Spo's handling of Herro as if Herro wasn't taking more shots than anyone else on the team. And as if he hadn't put up more shots than anyone else on the team last season. Spo has given Herro plenty of freedom.

If it wasn't coming from the usual suspects I'd say I'm amazed at the Herro criticism, especially coming off a game where he was the only one that could get it going when it mattered

We're looking at the 4th pick right now. Time for a DWade type franchise changing pick.

That’s the bright side of things. If there is one year to suck , boy is this the year.

Of course Vanderbilt has to be on a Danny Ainge team. I doubt we can make a trade with Ainge.

3ballbomber · Post #560 » by **3ballbomber** » Tue Nov 1, 2022 2:22 am

What freedom exactly? Herro averages just 1.6% FGA more than Jimmy's 14.0 FGA who's 2nd in attempts. Of 7gm's Herro has just 3 gm's where he lead in attempts. In that aspect the criticism isn't justified if the argument is he doesn't have team in mind & hijacking the offense.....If Spo's words were towards Herro that is.
